On January 17th, 2015. Miss Lebanon Saly Greige defended herself on the photo-sharing service [[Instagram]], saying Matalon had pestered her for a picture together and finally photobombed her.

"Since the first day of my arrival to participate to Miss Universe, I was very cautious to avoid being in any photo or communication with Miss Israel, who tried several times to take a photo with me," Greige said.

"I was having a photo with Miss Japan, Miss Slovenia, suddenly Miss Israel jumped in and took a selfie, and uploaded it on her social media."
